No it doesn't, and anyone who would draw a conclusion about an entire profession from the actions of a handful (positive or negative) can, in my opinion, go fuck off.

You found a security exploit, feel special. Finding an exploit isn't a voucher to rant against the people responsible for it. The bottom line is that nobody can be 100% sure that their data is secure after they've put it in the hands of a third party.
